Abstract: A system and method for enriching memories and enhancing emotions about a specific personal event is disclosed. The system allows an easy to use enrichment of memories in terms of emotions and feelings around personal events such as vacations, promotions, sports, celebrations, etc. in form of still images, illustrations, templates, audio, video, and/or data. The invention is a turn-key system that combines broadly available hardware, industrial design, software, proprietary content, user-friendly user interface, distribution, and services tailored towards emotional personal events. The system also provides for the updating of the content on a storage device, usage tracking, remote deletion of content, encryption/decryption of documents and secure access.

Abstract: A dispenser sequentially dispenses a plurality of containers. The dispenser includes a housing having a front, a rear, a top, a bottom, a first side and a second side, with an inlet and an outlet for the containers being disposed on its front. A passage is disposed within the housing and guides the containers from the inlet to the outlet. A receiving door is connected to the housing and is movable between a closed position covering the inlet and an open position allowing the containers to be inserted into the inlet. The receiving door includes a front face contoured to cooperate with the passage to guide the containers to a predetermined orientation upon insertion into the inlet. The passage is also canted toward one side of the housing to maintain the containers in the predetermined orientation.

Abstract: An implanting device for implanting pellets and like subcutaneously or intramuscularly in animals is described which utilizes means for indexing an implant magazine having a plurality of pellet-containing stations therein and means for automatically retracting a needle from about an implant charge to deposit the pellets in an animal. The implant magazine is indexed for sequential applications automatically as the retraction mechanism is cocked. Additionally, means for automatically ejecting a spent or empty implant cartridge are provided to prevent false deposition of implants. An implant cartridge having open channels containing implants can be utilized with the implanting device, the channels having means thereon for increasing the size of the channel during the implanting step to substantially eliminate the crushing or breaking of pellets as they are expelled from the cartridge. Alignment and stabilization means for the implant magazine and the implanting device also are provided.
